    Anyone here into car repair?

    The power window on my Trailblazer went out a while back, and the dealership wants a whole bunch to fix it. I'm a bit short on funds.... too much money spent supporting my LFS! :-) .... so I was wondering if anyone around here may be willing to help me out. I'm willing to pay for your time...

    Cleaning your testing equipment

    Generally, I use a small bottle brush and hot water. I then rinse with R/O and let dry. I built a test-tube drying rack which speeds up the drying process. If there is some reason to question the cleanliness of the tubes, I will wash them in a bleach solution, then rinse in a de-chlorinator...

    LFS in Missoula or western Montana area

    Can anyone tell me where to find a marine/reef store in the greater Missoula or western Montana area? I can Google of course, but with the influx of new businesses and recent closing of businesses, I was hoping someone more local to that area could give me some advise. Opinions about the...

    Ordering Corals Online...

    I've ordered from several: Cultivated Reef, Mr. Coral, Live Aquaria, and Saltwaterfish.com. I was most impressed with the quality of product I received from Cultivated Reef. All of them packaged the product well and everything arrived in good condition. You also can't go wrong ordering from...

    Power loss

    :( Mike, I feel terrible for you. Snowing heavily here in Idaho, but we typically avoid the freezing rain this far inland. I live in an area that tends to avoid the heaviest snow, and we still have a foot on the ground. Putting 'generator' on my shopping list and a note on my calendar to...

    Sun Coral not opening up

    I feed my sun coral with a pipette in the evening when it starts to open. Typically, when I feed the fish, it must catch the 'scent' of the food and starts to open more fully. I notice it's typically only completely open at night, but usually opens some polyps over the course of the day as...

    Was just in a car accident

    DonW definitely has it right. Granted, I live in Idaho, but the laws are basically the same. The driving without liablity insurance citation and the claim of damages against the other driver are two completely separate issues. While I don't have any legal experience, I can tell you that I...

    Overflow/sump question

    Somebody... somewhere.... makes a device that works in the same manner as an auto top-off that will shut off the pump when the water level gets too low in the sump. So, before your tank overflows, theoretically, your pump should stop if your overflow loses suction or becomes clogged. I just...

    Starfish ID?

    I did some reading on the astarinas... this guy just doesn't seem to match any specific pictures. I have 4 of them, and I've removed them to a specimen container for the time being. There are probably more, so I suppose I'll just pick them out as I find them. So far they haven't seemed to...

    Starfish ID?

    This little guy came in on some live rock. He's a dark grey color, a little bigger around than a pencil eraser, and doesn't move around the tank much. I've read everything I can find on starfish ID, but can't find anything that really matches. Any ideas what type it might be?
